I was a control on the HERA trial so I was only offered Herceptin after the trial results were known.
I was diagnosed in Sept 2003.
I ended up getting 2 years of herceptin 18 months after chemo finished(8 FEC). I will get my last dose in November 2007. So that means I got the Herceptin 26 months after diagnosois.
So far, I am NED.
Very good thread to read. So far we have all been lucky.
